Construction of rectangle ABCD with the following data is as follows
(a) AB = 4 cm, BC = 6 cm
Steps of construction:
Draw a line segment AB of scale 4 cm.
From point B draw a perpendicular line of scale 6 cm.
Mark that point as C.
From point C draw a line parallel to AB.
From point A draw a perpendicular line.
A point where the lines from points A and C intersect, mark it as D.
Hence the required construction.
(b) AB = 6 cm, AC = 7.2 cm
Steps of construction:
Draw a line segment AB of scale 6 cm.
From point A draw a perpendicular line of scale 7.2 cm.
Mark that point as C.
From point C draw a line parallel to AB.
From point B draw a perpendicular line.
A point where the lines from points b and C intersect, mark it as D.
Hence the required construction.
